A heavy, right-slanted sans with compact, superellipse-inspired bowls and softly squared curves. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with broad terminals and tight apertures that keep counters relatively small at text sizes. The overall rhythm is dense and punchy, with sturdy verticals and rounded-rectangle geometry showing through in letters like O/C and in the squared-off shoulders and joins. Figures are similarly robust and simplified, designed for impact rather than fine detail.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, branding marks, sports-themed graphics, packaging, and promotional materials where bold color and large sizes are expected. It can work for UI labels or badges when used sparingly and with generous spacing, but it is less ideal for long-form reading due to its dense counters and heavy texture.
The tone feels bold and energetic, mixing a friendly roundedness with an assertive, forward-leaning stance. It reads as sporty and attention-grabbing, with a slightly retro, poster-like flavor that stays approachable rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a friendly, rounded-rectangle construction and a dynamic italic posture. It prioritizes strong recognition and graphic presence, aiming to stay modern and approachable while still feeling fast and forceful.
The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, and the heavy weight amplifies a strong silhouette. Lowercase forms favor closed shapes and compact spacing, which can increase visual solidity but may reduce clarity in longer passages.
